Wasn't that hard LOL When you search for a phone number using Google, you need to put the phone number in quotes. If you don't, you get lots of search results that have only part of the phone number, and the useful results get buried. And you need to try the search with different types of...

The PM expiration options can be traded until 4:15 PM on the day of expiration. The AM expiration options are weekly--they only expire on Fridays--and they stop trading at the close of the market on Thursday.

More iron condors today Entry point for both legs was at 9:43 AM with SPX at about 3990

When I put the call spread on, at about 10:00 AM, SPX was at about 3933. When I put the put spread on, about four minutes later, it was at about 3940.

No. Both spreads were credit spreads, and both expired worthless. Net profit of 290.56 on two contracts in each spread. The two transactions at the bottom are not part of the iron condor. That was a call spread from Friday 03/17 that expired worthless with a settlement date of 03/20.

I have attached a screenshot of today's activity in SPX options... I am still learning how to capture images form the Schwab account. The image is tiny, but the resolution is very good, and if you magnify the image, you can read the text without any problem. An earlier post suggested adding...

I have a proprietary secret indicator that determines exactly when to close each spread. I'm still tweaking it. When I get it perfected, I'm going to sell it on a website for $350/month. If I get enough subscribers, I won't have to trade anymore. Just kidding. I don't have a good answer to...

Yes, that is the total PnL for the day on all SPXW trades. It was only three spreads. Two were closed and the third expired OTM.
